Phoenix Rising: From Heartache to Heroism

Chapter 419 After the Applause

During the ceremony, a brief camera shot caught Lydia's expression turning stiff and displeased when Violeta was announced as the winner. Her subsequent applause seemed forced and insincere. Online rumours suggested a rivalry between Lydia and Violeta's teams, though this was never confirmed.
